 Boys' Life
The fascination boys have with guns, their readiness to "blow away" those who anger them stems from the caricature of masculinity we all grew up with: Man as warrior, hunter, gunslinger, Mafioso hit man, CIA assassin, Robocop, Terminator.
Adult men may eventually pick their way through the ambiguities of gender, but for a boy, finding a way to be male while the girls are crowding his territory can easily lead to the choice of a grotesque but dramatic masculine stereotype.
As a result, boys of the year 2000 remain as stubbornly misogynistic as those I remember pulling girls' pigtails when I was in the fourth grade.

Boy's Life is truly a treasure and I promise myself to read this gem again in another 5-10 years time.

After the comparative success of Boys Life, four more budding filmmakers were invited to share their talents in a quartet of unorthodox--and very different--20-minute stories about being a gay male in the four corners of America.
Boys Life 2 isn't as affecting as the original, maybe because the stories are less personal, have less time to develop character and narrative, and focus more on surface effect--they're rather like going cruising instead of looking for true love.
Boys Life dealt with freshman themes--first crush, first love, and first realization of one's sexual identity--while Boys Life 2 is a second glance, older and a little bit wiser, and more jaded.

 Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys by Dan Phd Kindlon, Search Cheap Books, Discount Books, ISBN ...
Not surprisingly, the book is written for parents of boys as well as teachers, but it also has overwhelming relevance for anyone who desires to understand why many boys act the way they do-and what we can do to help them with their emotional struggles.
The salient issue interlaced throughout the book is the need for boys to obtain an emotional vocabulary and emotional literacy that affords them the capability to read and understand their own emotions, as well as others.
The "emotional miseducation" of boys begins early, at home and in the classroom, and there is a need to provide the proper "emotional steering" for boys so that they understand that expressing emotion is indeed normal and okay to do.

 YoungMinds | Magazine | The Army: it's a boy's life   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Uniforms, regiments and all the paraphernalia of the forces make these young people look a lot older than they are but the evidence suggests that, paradoxically, they may be developmentally and emotionally immature due to earlier childhood neglect and deprivation and thus more at risk of developing mental health difficulties under the strain of combat.
When vulnerable 16 year olds sign their service contracts it is doubtful that it is with the informed consent of themselves or their parents or guardians or that they fully understand the implications that they will be unable to discharge themselves after a short minimum period 5.
Because military life is peripatetic, with the rotation of regiments and training requirements, mental health staff will find it hard to build up long-term secure therapeutic relationships before families move on to their next base.

Or are the boys poised to overtake their archrivals with their first network TV special, an elaborate affair with soft pastel lighting, smoke and an ecstatic teenybopper audience?

 REVIEW: Queer as... "Boys Life"
First, it should be noted that "Boys Life 3" is opening in December, the very month in which Showtime is premiering its "Queer As Folk" television series.
Having just watched the entire first season of the British version, and the first three episodes of the US take on the series, it's clear that from now on anything gay in the entertainment field will no doubt be compared to these landmark programs.
Anyway, the cleverest segment of "Boys Life 3" is its French entry, David Fourier's "Majorettes in Space." Imagine that Godard was gay with an accessible sense of humor, and you're almost there.

 Review: Boys Life   (Site not responding. Last check: )
All three of the Boys Life shorts concentrate on the tribulations of teenagers coming to grips with their homosexuality in a world that defines anything non-hetero as "abnormal." Unfortunately, the tales are so similar in content and intent that by the third one, you feel like you're watching a re-run.
Each story has its high and low points, but the most damning argument against Boys Life is that its only standout characteristics are the use of gay protagonists and the treatment of this sexual preference as something natural (rather than a disease).
Despite relaxed performances by Josh Weinstein (as the troubled teen Justin) and Nick Poletti (as his older would-be gay mentor Russell), the short has a number of glaring problems, not the least of which is a cringingly bad acting job by Kimberly Flynn.

That could be because the shorts in Boys Life explore very personal, autobiographical reminiscences for their directors, Brian Sloan, Raoul O'Connell, and Robert Lee King.
Together, these stories form a definitive trilogy that examines the agony and joy of being "different." Boys Life was a modest success and spawned a sequel quartet of shorts that comprise Boys Life 2, a less personal--and affecting--delving into the dramas of gay life.
The second story is about a gay boy who has a best friend referred to as a "fat girl," and the third story is about a gay boy who can't get out from under his momma's thumb -- in fact, she forces him to take disco dancing lessons together with her!
